Defining Deviance Down, like to Rock Bottom

What to make of this guy Weiner, or for that matter, this guy's weiner? I'm sorry, sort of, but really. Congressman (for now) Weiner is the butt of every successful comedians' sorry ass jokes, so despite my elevated rhetorical platform - rarely if ever devoted to humor - who among U can blame me? Don't respond Georgette!

Much more to this Blog's point, its reason for existence even, is the impact this perverted weasel's misconduct has on the public weal. In short, not good! Many of my prior Posts have observed that the current Administration seems devoid of a single adult in the room, a serious minded person in charge who puts the nation's interests only into his/her calculations as to the proper course to set for the country. Weiner's imbecile sextings demonstrate the focus of a child obsessed with his physical, mental and social inadequacies. The nation is beset with multiple challenges, verging on economic crises, and one of the Congressional leaders for the President's party spends untold hours engaged in computer sex! As a result of this debasement of his office, Anthony Weiner has been neutered, castrated even (oh did I mention the blatant lying to everyone he purportedly cares about - family, wife, friends, party, public and press.)

So, with Weiner's credibility, and thus public service effectiveness, destroyed, what possible motivation exists for liberals to defend him. Got me; thus, I will let a leading spokesperson state his own case for keeping A.W. in the House (not his, of course): "Excuse me for asking, but why exactly should Anthony Weiner resign? He FLIRTED with women in a crude, dorky and easily traceable way." (Emphasis added); Peter Beinart, The Daily Beast, 6/13/11.

I may be a senior citizen; nonetheless, I know flirting when I see it, and AW blew by that nomenclature by the second keystroke to his ever expanding gaggle of beauties. Flirting is the least conceivable description a commentator concerned about his own credibility would use regarding Weiner's despicably salacious and purient pornographic images. For anyone to assert that any responsible adult could do what Weiner did and keep his job as a national leader must either hate America or have absolutely no sense of decency whatsoever. We, as a body politic, must repudiate Weiner and Beinart unequivocably or risk having our once great nation run be sexual predators. Not acceptable, so long as I have a humble voice.
